    Yes, you can transfer it to a new cash ISA without it affecting the current tax year's ISA allowance.

    In order to do this, you'll need to open the new account and then arrange for the transfer to be carried out by the provider - don't move or withdraw the money yourself. On the transfer form, there should be an option to only make the transfer after the existing ISA has matured - this is essential to avoid any early transfer penalties from the existing provider (do not select the 'transfer immediately and pay any appropriate penalty' option if you're still within the fixed rate period).

    As long as you use the new ISA provider’s transfer process.
